Treated for Illness, Then Lost in Labyrinth of Bills - New York Times

Where should we look for the leadership to fix this mess? Where should it originate? Feds? States? Insurance industry? Medical Associations?? Hospitals? Corporations who have large health plans? Information technology software companies?
